    Communists have killed millions. So unless you consider nazis okay, since they aren’t destroying the US government as of now, then they deserve the same treatment.

      That’s not exactly “communists”

      nazism is inherently evil because their ideology has racial supremacy as one of its core tenets

      communism, is a statesless, classless, egalitarian society.

      But what went wrong in USSR and PRC is the Vanguardism. Vangardism is the belief that a “Vanguard Party” will establish a state with the vanguard party having full control over the country, then when communism is acheived, the state would “wither away”. I mean guess how that works out (it failed). When people have dictatorial powers, they will never give it up. That was the problem with USSR and PRC, not the “communism”. (They never really had communism. Russia and modern day China are State-Capitalists)

        “No true Scotsman” fallacy. All you are doing is rebranding communism as “something else”. And yeah, they were communist countries.
